It was you and me Sitting in an apple tree at the summer's end we were only seventeen we held on so tight, that September night then you promised me
chorus: We're never getting older we're never gonna be that way Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday Let them say we're crazy, ‘cause we already won when you promised me, we'd be forever young
I got your letter I can't seem to put it down It makes it better to have a piece of you around they're all just strangers their words don't mean a thing I swear I'll die here I swear that I'd do anything to be back again, at the summer's end when you promised me
We're never getting older, we're never gonna be that way Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday They still say we're crazy and I still say we won when you promised me, we'd be forever young
Sooner or later-time gets the best of you I should've known better-you gotta do what you gotta do If I had me a river I'd sit and watch it run by I'd never let it run dry I'm never gonna say goodbye
